Crime Insiders

FORENSICS | The Headless Body in the Mineshaft

06 Jul 2025

Description

In the winter of 1988, two gold prospectors were scouring the picturesque Mount Firebrace in Victoria… when their search unearthed something far more chilling than treasure. Inside a disused mine shaft, they found a decomposed, mummified, headless body.  For local police and Melbourne’s elite homicide squad, it was a mystery frozen in time. Could forensics bring the truth to light? That's what today’s guest, forensic pathologist Professor David Ranson, set out to uncover. This episode contains graphic descriptions of crime scenes and violent crime. If you need support, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
